But then I opened the microwave door to put it out and bits of burning wrapper wafted out. I probably should have just turned the microwave off and it would have starved of oxygen. But instead I found myself stomping the wrapped sandwich. I opened the wrapper. My shoe had not touched the sandwich. It was a little flat. I ate the sandwich. It was good.
Ha ha ha!! I once set a frozen half full box of broth on fire in the microwave while trying to thaw the contents.

You consider us strangers Miss Hepburn? We've been reading each others stuff for years.

I was up on a ladder, one time, painting the living room ceiling, it was summer, it was extra-warm, and I put the ceiling fan on to cool off. When I got up on the ladder I said to myself: You know you're an Aries, and Aries are prone to head injuries, so get down off that ladder and turn that fan off!

And? Getting down from the ladder, a blade hit my head, blood all over!

I hate roaches. I once totally freaked out when there was a mouse in my bedroom. Oddly, I didn't hurt myself. I usually do.
